CHRISTMAS..DT

 Hello everyone,

It is Wednesday and I'm your hostess over at LITTLE RED WAGON and my theme for you over there is so very easy..CHRISTMAS CARD..any style or size or amount..share them all..

When I say Christmas card I think it is very rare for me to make one, usually anywhere  between 2 & 12 depending on the size of course, these puppies are the bigger ones and I could not let this Christmas fly passed without my  homemade wagon wheel..


I also adore this wagon set from Honey Bee Stamps..
the straw and wheel details using real nuts.


and adding a tree just makes me happy.


Holly all geared up for Christmas 😅 and looking real excited.
( She's a bit miffed as she got told off for sniffing the table with my Christmas bits on it )


While making the wagons up I made some wagon wheels, very easy to do.


Cut some birdies..


and done..


needed more but smaller birds..
Cut twice, once in white and the breast falls out, so cut again in red and inlay.


then ink him up..


Marianne Creatable tree all cut and inked and snowed on..


Be like that little madam.. she can be as prickly as her name.



and starting to build the cards..
Tree in place..


So bank and white splatters..


Wagon wheel getting sort with a bit of foam tape on the ends..


In place..


Birdie on top


some wooden snowflakes and gold die cut sentiment..


Then I found this buried in a drawer full of card stock and so,



I made one with that as my snow bank..


and another with snowball pom pom and tree stump
and cute little memory box die  star from my stash hanging from the tree tip.



Until I had 4 of them..

So there you go, thought I five but it was four..

So do comer and joins us HERE


thank you so much for stopping by..

See you soon..

luv CHRISSYxx

A beautiful set of cards Chrissy, lovely rustic snow scenes with the carts and wheels and snow-laden trees, the felt snow banks look so soft and deep, love all those little robins too. Now you'd better go and make friends with Holly, she doesn't look at all pleased with you! xx

Absolutely beautiful cards Chrissy-and Holly don't you love it when they take the huff and turn their back on you lol. My feisty old female Millie comes in and walks up and down on both radiators looking at me as much as to say you haven't put the heating on yet -obedient to the last I turn it on lol. Love all the die-cuts with the wagon and little Robins.

Chrissy, it’s always fun visiting your blog, seeing your process, and enjoying the drama from your furry craft helper. But mostly, I thank you for sharing the way your creativity comes together. It’s like having a joint time of laughter and sharing. Your cards are true masterpieces, and need to be framed and appreciated all year long! Nature’s Beauty shown through your own dear heart ~ a wonderful gift to the rest of us! Hugs, de

Holly may not be amused Chrissy but I certainly am. You put so much work into each of your cards and they are ALWAYS absolutely gorgeous!!

You are just so creative, I wouldn't have thought to use the wagon on a Christmas card but it works perfectly in your cards, I love the tree stump with the bird too and of course the wagon wheel is perfect too, so loving the designs here!

What a fabulous set, Chrissy! So smart to make four at once. Doesn't look like Holly approves though. (; I hope you have a lovely Christmas, my friend!

Instead of Santa's toy shop it is Chrissy's card shop in full swing. Beautiful, creative cards! I love how you used the fluffy snow and all those wonderful birds. I hope you had the merriest Christmas and that 2026 is full of all you love.
